< Isaiah 51 >

1 [Yahweh says], “You people who desire to act righteously/justly, who want to do what I want you to do, listen to me! Think about Abraham! [It is as though] [MET] he was a huge rock cliff; and when you [people of Israel became a nation], [it was as though] [MET] you were cut from that rock [DOU].
Kuwiinna xaqnimada raaca oo Rabbiga doondoonow, bal i maqla. Bal eega dhagaxii laydinka gooyay iyo godkii laydinka soo qoday.
2 Think about your ancestor Abraham and [his wife] Sarah, of whom [all of] you are descendants. When I first spoke to Abraham, he had no children. But after I blessed him, he had a huge number of descendants.
Bal eega aabbihiin Ibraahim, iyo Saarahdii idin dhashay, waayo, markuu mid qudha ahaa ayaan u yeedhay, waanan barakeeyey, oo tarmiyey.
3 [Some day I], Yahweh, will encourage his descendants [again], and I will comfort all [the people who live in] the ruins [of Jerusalem]. The desert in that area will become like Eden, like the garden that I, Yahweh, [made/planted]. All the people there will be joyful and happy; they will thank me and sing.
Waayo, Rabbigu Siyoon wuu u qalbi qabowjiyey, oo meelaheeda baabba'ay oo dhanna wuu u qalbi qabowjiyey, cidladeedana wuxuu ka dhigay sidii Ceeden oo kale, oo lamadegaankeedana sidii beertii Rabbiga oo kale, oo dhexdeedana waxaa laga heli doonaa farxad iyo rayrayn, iyo mahadnaqid iyo cod heeseed.
4 My people of Judah, listen carefully [DOU] to me, because [I want you to] proclaim my laws; the just/right things that I do will be [like] [MET] a light for the people of the nations.
Dadkaygow, i maqla, oo quruuntaydoy, dhegta ii dhiga, waayo, sharci baa iga soo bixi doona, oo caddaaladdaydana waxaan ka dhigi doonaa inay dadyowga iftiin u noqoto.
5 I will soon/quickly rescue you [DOU]; by my power [MTY] I will bring you back [from being exiled in Babylonia] [DOU]. The people who live on islands in the ocean will wait for me [to help them], confidently expecting for me to use my power [MTY].
Xaqnimadaydii way soo dhowdahay, badbaadintaydiina way soo baxday, oo gacmahayguna dadyowgay u garsoori doonaan, gasiiraduhuna anigay i sugi doonaan, oo gacantayday isku hallayn doonaan.
6 Look up at the sky, and look at the earth, [and see what they are like now], because [some day] the sky will disappear like [SIM] smoke, and the earth will wear out like [SIM] old clothes wear out, and people on the earth will die like gnats/flies. But I will rescue/save you, and you will remain free forever, and I will rule you righteously/fairly forever.
Bal indhihiinna samooyinka ku taaga, oo haddana dhulka hoose fiiriya, waayo, samooyinku sida qiiq oo kale bay u libdhi doonaan, oo dhulkuna sida dhar buu u duugoobi doonaa, oo kuwa degganuna sidaas oo kalay u dhiman doonaan, laakiinse badbaadintaydu weligeedba way sii waari doontaa, oo xaqnimadayduna weligeed ma dhammaan doonto.
7 You people who know what things are right to do, and who know in your inner beings [what is written in] my laws, listen to me! Do not be afraid of people who taunt/insult you; do not be disturbed/upset when people revile you,
Kuwiinna xaqnimada yaqaanow, dadka sharcigaygu qalbigooda ku jirow, bal i maqla. Dadka canaantiisa ha ka cabsanina, caydiisana ha ka qalbi jabina.
8 because [some day they will be destroyed] like [MET] clothing that is eaten by ([larvae of] moths/cockroaches), like wool garments that have been eaten by worms. I will save you people, and you will be saved forever.”
Waayo, aboor baa sida dhar oo kale u cuni doona, oo dixiri baa sida dhogor oo kale u cuni doona, laakiinse xaqnimadaydu weligeedba way sii waari doontaa, oo badbaadintayduna tan iyo ab ka ab way sii jiri doontaa.
9 Yahweh, wake up [and do something for us]! Show your power! Do mighty things like you did long ago, when you stabbed [RHQ] that sea monster/dragon Rahab and cut it into pieces.
Gacanta Rabbigoy, toos oo toos, oo xoog yeelo, oo u toos sidii waayihii hore, iyo sidii qarniyadii hore. Miyaadan ahayn tii Rahab googooysay oo bahalbadeeddii mudday?
10 Surely you are [RHQ] the one who caused the [Red] Sea to become dry and made a path through that deep water in order that your people could cross it!
Miyaadan ahayn tii engejisay baddii ahayd biyihii moolka dheeraa? Sow ma aad tihid tii badda moolkeeda jidka ka samaysay in kuwa la soo furtay ay ku gudbaan?
11 And those whom Yahweh will rescue [from being exiled in Babylonia] will [similarly] return to Jerusalem, singing. Their being joyful forever will be [like] [MET] a crown on their heads. They will not be sad or mourn any more; they will be [completely] joyful and happy.
Oo kuwa Rabbigu soo furtay way soo noqon doonaan, iyagoo gabyaya ayay Siyoon iman doonaan, oo madaxoodana farxad weligood ah ayaa saarnaan doonta, oo waxay heli doonaan farxad iyo rayrayn, oo tiiraanyo iyo taahna way carari doonaan.
12 [Yahweh says], “I am the one who encourages you. So (why are you/you should not be) [RHQ] afraid of humans who will [wither and disappear like] [MET] grass.
Aniga qudhayda weeye kan ku qalbi qaboojiya. Maxaad tahay waadiga nin dhimanaya iyo binu-aadmi sida caws oo kale u baabba'aya ka cabsanayee?
13 (Why have you/You should not have) [RHQ] forgotten [me], Yahweh, the one who created your nation, the one who stretched out the sky and laid the foundations of the earth. (Why are you/You should not be) [RHQ] continually afraid of those who are angry with you and (oppress you/treat you cruelly) and want to get rid of you. [You should not be afraid of them now], because those angry people have now disappeared!
Ma waxaad illooday Rabbiga ku sameeyey oo samooyinka kala bixiyey, oo dhulka aasaaskiisa dhigay, oo ma waxaad had iyo goor maalin kasta ka cabsanaysaa kan wax dulma cadhadiisa, sidii isagoo diyaar u ah inuu wax baabbi'iyo? Haddaba bal meeday kan wax dulma cadhadiisu?
14 Soon you people who have been caused to be slaves [in Babylonia] will be freed! You will not remain in prison, and you will not die of hunger,
Maxbuuska la masaafuriyey dhaqso baa loo furi doonaa, oo ma uu dhiman doono, yamayskana ma geli doono, cuntadiisana ma uu waayi doono.
15 because I am Yahweh, your God, the one who stirs up the sea and causes the waves to roar; I am the Commander of the armies of angels!
Laakiinse anigu waxaan ahay Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah oo badda isku walaaqa si ay mawjadaheedu u guuxaan. Magiciisa waxaa la yidhaahdaa Rabbiga ciidammada.
16 I have given you my message [MTY] to proclaim, and I have protected you with my hand [MTY]. I stretched out the sky and laid the foundation of the earth. And I am the one who says to you Israeli people, ‘You are my people!’”
Oo erayadaydii ayaan afkaaga geliyey, hooskii gacantaydana waan kugu daboolay si aan samooyinka u kala bixiyo, oo aan aasaaska dhulka u dhigo, oo aan reer Siyoonna ugu idhaahdo, Dadkayga baad tihiin.
17 [You people of] [APO] Jerusalem, wake up [DOU]! You have experienced Yahweh severely punishing [MTY] you. Yahweh has caused you to suffer much, all that he wanted you to suffer, like [MET] someone who causes another person to suffer by forcing him to drink every drop of [MTY] a cupful of bitter liquid.
Yeruusaalemay tii gacanta Rabbiga koobkii cadhadiisa ka cabtayay, toos oo toos, oo sara joogso. Waxaad cabtay koobka lagu dhacdhaco, waadna heensatay.
18 [Now] you do not have any children who are alive [DOU] and able to take your hand and guide you.
Wiilashii ay dhashay oo dhan laguma arko mid iyada haga, oo wiilashii ay korisay oo dhanna laguma arko mid iyada gacanta qabta.
19 You have experienced several disasters: Your country has become desolate/deserted; [your cities have been] destroyed; [many people have] died from hunger; [many people have been] killed by your enemies’ swords. Now, there is no one [RHQ] left to console/comfort you and sympathize with you.
Labadan waxyaalood ayaa kugu dhacay. Bal yaa kuu barooran doona? Baabba' iyo halaag, iyo abaar iyo seef. Haddaba bal sidee baan kuu qalbi qabowjin doonaa?
20 Your children have fainted and lie in the streets; they are [as helpless as] [SIM] an antelope [that has been caught] in a net. What has happened to them is because Yahweh has been very angry with them; he has rebuked them severely.
Wiilashaadii aad bay u daaleen, waxayna dhinac yaalliin jidadka oo dhan sida biciid dabin ku dhacay. Waxay ka wabxeen cadhadii Rabbiga iyo canaantii Ilaahaaga.
21 So now, you people who have suffered much, [you act as though] you are drunk, but it is not because you have drunk a lot of wine.
Haddaba taada dhibaataysan oo ku sakhraantay wax aan khamri ahaynay, bal waxan maqal:
22 Yahweh, your Lord and your God, the one who argues/pleads your case, says this: “Note this: [It is as though] [MET] I have taken that cup of bitter liquid from your hands; I will not be angry with you and cause you to suffer any more.
Sayidkaaga Rabbiga ah oo ah Ilaahaaga dacwada dadkiisa u muddaca wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, waxaan gacantaada ka bixiyey koobka lagu dhacdhaco, kaasoo ah koobka cadhadayda. Adigu mar dambe innaba ma aad cabbi doontid.
23 Instead, I will cause those who have tormented you to suffer; [I will severely punish] those who said to you, ‘Prostrate yourselves in order that we may walk on you; [lie down on your stomachs] in order that your backs will be like [SIM] streets that we can walk on.’”
Laakiinse waxaan gacanta u gelin doonaa kuwa ku dhiba, oo naftaada ku yidhi, Dhambacaadso aan kugu gudubnee, oo adna kuwii gudbayay ayaad dhabarkaagii uga dhigtay sida dhulka oo kale, iyo sida jidka oo kale.
